Download or read book Landscaping Postcoloniality The Dissemination of Cameroon Anglophone Literature written by Joyce Ashuntantang and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2009 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a foundational text on the production and dissemination of Anglophone Cameroon literature. The Republic of Cameroon is a bilingual country with English and French as the official languages. Ashuntantang shows that the pattern of production and dissemination of Anglophone Cameroon literature is not only framed by the minority status of English and English-speaking Cameroonians within the Republic of Cameroon, but is also a reflection of a postcolonial reality in Africa where mostly African literary texts published by western multi-national corporations are assured wide international accessibility and readership. This book establishes that in spite of these setbacks, Anglophone Cameroon writers have produced a corpus of work that has enriched the genres of prose, poetry and drama, and that these texts deserve a wider readership.

Download or read book Bordered Identities in Language Literature and Culture written by Mbuh Tennu Mbuh and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-21 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cameroon’s composite state of postcoloniality inevitably burdened it with a linguistic and pedagogic culture that changed the eager student into a centripetal mimic of the colonial imagination. Recent events in the country, especially relating to the Anglophone Problem, have spotlighted the need to revisit this space, which has been over-politicised into what Anglophone Cameroonians see as a state of hypnosis. Given the clash between postcolonial consciousness and the globalizing forces of late capitalism, a necessary meeting point had to be negotiated in linguistic and pedagogic contexts, to (re)affirm the identity problematic in Cameroon, and in the interpretation of colonial voices in literary texts. Bordered Identities in Language, Literature, and Culture: Readings on Cameroon and the Global Space offers a variegated reflection on these issues, and simultaneously responds to increasing demands to re-negotiate identity beyond mega frames of Empire, based on contextual data that combine indigenous and globalising imperatives.

Download or read book Towards a Transcultural Future Literature and Human Rights in a Post Colonial World written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studying postcolonial literatures in English can (and indeed should) make a human rights activist of the reader – there is, after all, any amount of evidence to show the injustices and inhumanity thrown up by processes of decolonization and the struggle with past legacies and present corruptions. Yet the human-rights aspect of postcolonial literary studies has been somewhat marginalized by scholars preoccupied with more fashionable questions of theory. The present collection seeks to redress this neglect, whereby the definition of human rights adopted is intentionally broad. The volume reflects the human rights situation in many countries from Mauritius to New Zealand, from the Cameroon to Canada. It includes a focus on the Malawian writer Jack Mapanje. The contributors’ concerns embrace topics as varied as denotified tribes in India, female genital mutilation in Africa, native residential schools in Canada, political violence in Northern Ireland, the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and the discourse of the Treaty of Waitangi. The editors hope that the very variety of responses to the invitation to reflect on questions of “Literature and Human Rights” will both stimulate further discussion and prompt action. Contributors are: Edward O. Ako, Hilarious N. Ambe, Ken Arvidson, Jogamaya Bayer, Maggie Ann Bowers, Chandra Chatterjee, Lindsey Collen, G.N. Devy, James Gibbs, J.U.

Download or read book The Problem Of The Gods written by Johnson Ezekiel Sunday and published by Ukiyoto Publishing. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Problem Of The Gods" is a historical fiction novel that depicts the evil acts of men in those days when Nigeria was not colonized by civilization. Some parts of the Ibibio/Efik villages were worshiping idols, using the power of their forefathers to perform wonders and evil manipulations. Akarika was a witch doctor, who in those days was an evil man. Many innocent souls' blood was stained in his hand. It also revolves around the barbaric Nigerian culture that affects Ibibio widows. It focuses on the pains and rejections they must endure while grieving their husbands. This can be seen in the life of Inemesit after she lost her husband Effiong, who was one of the best hunters of the time. The exercise totally dehumanized her. Then the story talked about some of the culture and lifestyle of the Ibibio people in the southern part of Nigeria African countries.
